for enquiries:
Fiona Tan is a Board of Architects registered Architect based in Singapore and Principal Architect/Founder of ATELIER IF.
​
A recipient of the Design Singapore Overseas Scholarship, she completed her B. Arch at the National University of Singapore in and thereafter her M. Arch in the Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London with Merit Award.
​
Her formative years in practice were shaped by two diverse and award winning architectural firms - CSYA Pte Ltd and Zarch Collaboratives Pte Ltd. At those firms, she had the opportunity to explore varying scales and typologies, from master plan studies, a Public Hawker Centre, residential homes, a Private Members' Club to temporary architectural pavilions including the Pathfinder (recipient of the SIA Design Award 2020 (Special Category)-under Zarch Collaboratives).
​
Her architectural pursuit is informed by her experience in artmaking. Working in the blurred boundaries of art and architecture, her personal and collaborative works span diverse mediums of representations- these include Soft Realities (2021) for the Goethe Institut, I’m All Hands and All Eyes (2021) for the National Gallery Singapore, Ways of Seeing (2021) for the Asian Civilisations Museum and SS Nimby (2015) for the Joo Chiat OH! Open House and her self initiated exhibition Instant Citizen (2016).
In her architectural practice, she seeks to craft spaces that tell stories of their inhabitants through a tactile and material- based approach.
Established in 2021, Atelier IF has been featured in Home & Décor Magazine, The Straits Times, The Business Times, Address and Stackedhomes.
She is also currently leading a design studio at the National University of Singapore, Department of Architecture.
